Fasting - An Adventure in Spirituality

Today is day 3 of my little fast....I have only been fasting off and on for the past few weeks and felt I needed to dig a little deeper this week. So...here I am, on day 3 already and feeling pretty good so far. Of course the 'worst' is now behind me in terms of the adjustment phase!

And as usual, I am busy wandering around tidying up, sorting out, cleaning and clearing - the usual things to be doing during any cleanse. And it feels great to be back in the swing of things as well...each time I do this I re-gain space...

By this I mean - our old diets and lifestyle of processed foods, medication, stressed out working days and all the ways we abused ourselves...pushed us out of important places (aren't they all important!) within our bodies.

Fasting...detox....cleansing -- is all about retaking that spiritual space (mitochondrial DNA). And what an adventure it is!

So, today is day 3 of taking back some of the deepest space I have ever found myself exploring inside of my own body. I am always amazed and thrilled each time I do this...there is so much to discover about myself and what we as human beings are capable of.

Right now - I feel as if I have walked through a new door, this one is not like anything I have ever encountered in this lifetime. But I know it's a place I have always dreamed of....

If you haven't started a fast (cleanse, detox, Master Cleanse) yet....you have no idea what you are missing - it's all there inside, it has always been there and it's all yours.

Life Happens in it's Own Time

Taking stock of where we are at every now and then is something I do regularly… and lately it seems as if things are changing almost daily…so that’s a lot of pondering! LOL

I’ve spent a lot of time in my life planting, starting, beginning – and now I am in a place where things are finally growing. In the directions I want them to. And this is a very interesting process to be witnessing.

Re-growing your gut is a process that involves allowing lots of time and space for things to grow those deep anchoring roots. That’s one part of it…it also means stripping back to basics all the junk that went before.

And that is the difficult part for many people.

In my own experience, there is not one thing my body, mind and soul is incapable of doing. However, I have to want these changes and deep healing to take place bad enough, to see it through to the end.

Many times before I have watched people give up on themselves and I myself have walked away before things had run their natural course....but, if life has taught me anything - it is to wait it out. See what's around that next bend.

I have watched my body heal itself over the years from the top down and the inside out – and I am only just getting started. Even after all this time. Our body really does re-build and replenish completely during and 8 to 10 year lifecycle…

That for me, appears to be about right for healing and repair to take place right down to the DNA and cellular level. During this (and any) healing process it is vital to see things through to completion.

I don’t know about you – but I’ve got the rest of my life to live on this planet….so it’s been worth taking this past decade to create a healthy body, mind and spirit…because now I have even more time here living in good health. 

Life happens in it's own time.... Let your life be true to you

You Know that You 'Know' - It's Written in Your DNA

I have been taking a mental break for a few days…at least that’s what I think it was! Perhaps I just stood back a little from everything in order to gain a new perspective…either way I have not written down a single word in about 3 days.

That’s my new record! LOL

But, I am back and ready to talk again about this crazy world we all call home. One of the few pleasures in life is to be able to speak freely about the things that really matter to us and which are on our minds.

Of course the way things are right now and this current environment of fear (has it really ever been different?) has us all clammed up pretty tightly. I honestly don’t think anyone says what they mean or mean what they say.

And that brings me right back to where I started from….the point of talking, writing and perhaps even being here is to walk, live, act, work and BE – as if we mean it. Part of that would entail speaking up about things that are important to us.

So many wrongs are done around the planet each and every second of the day – we have mostly turned a blind eye to it. Perhaps thinking – sure, what can I do about it? And for the most part we are right…unless…

We pluck up the courage to just say one thing each day, or to act differently just once in a while – deliberately drawing attention to a situation, relationship, area of our lives where we see something clearly, is not right.

If I was to start with anything in my own personal scope of life, I might say --- don’t think for one minute there is anything that you don’t know…about the world, life, the Universe around us, how to look after ourselves in this place.

And what is to come….

All of this, knowledge, information, ancient wisdom resides inside – twisted away within our genetic fingerprint. Our DNA contains infinite and ample directions or guidelines on everything we need to live fully on this planet.

And our survival during adverse, toxic conditions.

What we need to do is align with nature…after all, the energy of the earth is our own…

Integration Energy - Calling Us Home

It's another Monday and a chance to have a great start for this week - and I like new beginnings. So, it's a great day to be here. It's also sunny (sort of) and not raining (all the time) at the moment - which means we are off to a good start...

Today the energy is strange - in that it is changing yet again. There is so much around us that is new right now - a lot of higher level vibrations have been arriving or releasing around the earth. I am certain this has to do with so many people on the earth seeking change.

What you are seeking - is also seeking you.

This is such a profound statement and I've no doubt that it is quite true. Whatever it is we are searching for in this lifetime here on this planet....is also searching for us. Perhaps we have already found it - or are in the process of bringing it all back together into the one place.

That is the most important thing about following our dreams, being on our paths and even being right here at this time on earth. Now is the time - we have an opportunity for total integration. This simply means a coming back together of the self.

At no other time in our history have we either been so disconnected within, while being offered this unique opportunity to find the rest of ourselves and our families - so we can be complete; outwardly. Of course, you have to accept what is yours and not go looking for something that doesn't belong to you.

For a lot of us this will mean finding the family of origin (the people we arrived on this planet with). Our place in the sun - it's been there all along, calling our names, written in our DNA and pulling us towards home.

It's going to be a great day!

A Physical Shift in the Right Direction - Higher Consciousness

When you are fasting each day is a milestone because you have made it through another few hours or a day. But also another detox cycle (as I refer to them) of one to three days where your body dips deeply into the tissues to pull something to the surface. 

For me this is day 15 of my detox and I am feeling pretty good - what I like so much about all of this is the fact that I am observing my body in action. Which is both amazing and humbling to witness. At one time I would have said I had seen it all - perhaps when I healed my body of cancer using clean water, food, exercise and herbs.

And then when I had my daughter at home in a free birth - that for me was such an event in my life. Again, watching, witnessing, in complete awe of what my body was capable of. Right now I am seeing this again. 

Perhaps month after month as I uncover, unwrap and undo all of these years of toxins which had been held deeply in place in the matrix of my organs, tissues and bones - I am seeing something even more profound and more extraordinary than ever before.

My body is changing - the cells, the structure, the inner processes and even down to the DNA are all shifting into something different and completely new. I can feel it all around me as I go about my day - paying attention to the smallest details will provide all the clues.

This is the one thing about detox using water and herbs - and a very important aspect of doing spiritual work properly. Your body will use the water to clean, clear, shift and create the body you need here on earth. A body ready and able to carry higher levels of consciousness. 

And to think - most of this resistance has been affecting my mind - overcome those influences and it all starts to fall into place.

Day 4 - So Far, So Good...

Well, we are all doing fine and moving right along here - it is remarkable how much time and effort goes into thinking about, preparing, cooking and eating food. When you are not doing much of it (or any) you end up with all of this free time on your hands. Plenty of time to get things done.

During each of these cleanses I still cook for the little one and the dogs/cat/turtle etc. as they would not take kindly to doing a fast with us. However, I don't even think much about eating food myself, because as I've said before and discuss in my book The Pagan Diet, my mind just goes into Master Cleanse mode along with my body and that is it for the entire 10 days.

However, I do plan menus for our next celebration and that was the topic of discussion last night as everyone wants something different - and now the challenge is on for me to create 'something different'. As you might have already guessed, I like a challenge!

Well, today is day four or our ten day MC and I am feeling pretty good. I ended up going to bed early last night thinking that I would read, but I was tired so fell asleep right away. And I slept fairly deeply. Just a couple of dreams though...

Last night I dreamt of clothes, cases, bags, traveling on buses and clothes in shops - usually this means significant changes deep into the tissues and cellular structure, so I am curious about what exactly will present itself over these next couple of days.

I am still closing lots of energy leaks (this is my own technique, get my book if you want to know more) to safety on the spiritual path and I can see several situations more clearly where I was not feeling safe. However, these feelings of threat, danger, hazard or peril - have been largely trained out of us and are not always easily recognized. They are often disguised as something else - usually discomfort, awkwardness or anxiety which we readily dismiss. 

It is very important to get back into these spaces and places of our bodies so we can listen carefully and follow inner instructions implicitly. 

When I check in with my body right now, I have some symptoms of detox, my tongue is coated, my hair is limp, I feel toxic, slight headache, a bit tired - but my mind is clear, I have done my second salt water flush and my energy is rising overall. 

Not a bad start to the 4th day overall! 

Enjoy your day,

April

Master Cleanse Day 2

This morning I feel pretty good, my only detox complaint so far is one knee that is aching, however, I will say that I 'feel' absolutely toxic. It's as if something is working its' way up to the surface of my skin and boy am I aware of it.

My hair is limp, my skin is oily, I even dreamed last night of being in a house with people from my past where my skin was all lumpy and I felt yukky in the dream as well. It was interesting because a woman who had been sleeping outside finally woke up (I had been waiting for her to wake) and I was able to invite her inside the house for some food. 

That dream seemed like a good sign for the start of my fourth cleanse in four months.

However, being an intuitive, I find myself very sensitive to the goings on around me - this week has been heavy with negative energy (fear from the establishment) that has been playing out on the airwaves. 

For instance the prison sentence for the punk band Pussy Riot, is as unbelievable as it is absurd. Clearly the inquisition is alive and well when religion/state is able to influence (boldly) and direct the outcome of an independent court case. But alas nothing has changed, and the witch hunt continues. 

Reading about this in the media has actually pushed many of my own buttons from my memories of past lives, having been pursued and persecuted by these churches and their brand of self-righteousness. If you ever get a chance to read up on the lost tribe of Beothuk Indians in Newfoundland (of which I am descended), perhaps this might give you some insight into the enormity of the crimes committed. 

For me these cleanses always bring up not only the physical toxins such as DES I spoke about yesterday, but also these emotional and energetic toxins carried in our DNA. This is a very thorough process, if you allow it to be, and will also dislodge molecules of oppression that have formed into blocks in the energy field. 

Today, I have already done my salt water flush which of course always makes me feel better as some of the toxins get moving right away. And I plan on taking some senna tea tonight to keep the energy moving as well as exercise and a walk by the sea. 

For the most part, not a bad start to this cleanse at all! 

Talk tomorrow,

All This...Just to Discover Who I Am?

Today is my last food day - I start my August Master Cleanse tomorrow and I must say, I can't wait! I am happy to be doing it (I have come to love follow through as much as fasting) and I am equally pleased that once again I will complete exactly what I set out to do.

Four MC in four months - and to be perfectly honest, it has not been difficult at all. Quite the opposite in fact, that is not to say that any of this work is easy, because it certainly does have it's moments. However, when looking at how I used to live, how things were for us all and the endlessness of walking this path with seemingly not much taking place.

Well, this is far better!

I talk about this in my books, and will mention it again here. Our purpose, destiny, reason for living and even being on this planet in the first place is extremely important and vital information for us to know. However, as this is a personal message written for our eyes only deep within our DNA, there are locks, controls and a special decoder ring to even get in the door to that place.

As a medical intuitive this is a question that I get asked a lot - please tell me what my purpose is so that I can mull it over or take action on it. Perhaps that would be a good thing to know, but I don't think that it is anyone else's place to inform you of what you are here to do - mostly because it is a message between you and your soul.

Another good reason to not have these details revealed too early on in the game is because for the most part we are walking this path alone, in the dark, along an unlit trail, meeting few fellow travelers where much danger abounds.

Or, in other words it is simply not safe for us to have all of the details before the party begins. Perhaps we first need to show up for the party! Then we get to see how things are going to play out once we are in the door.

Living this way and following The Pagan Diet - Food, Fast and Feast has changed the way I walk my path, the pace has picked up and for the first time in 20 years, I feel as if I have some level of control over things.

When I want to create change in my life I do a cleanse, each fast/food/feast day brings with it new levels of awakening, learning and reaching more deeply into my own body to find the answers to each question that I ask.

And to be honest, I would have said to you years ago that I trusted my body (especially after healing cancer and having my daughter at home in a Free Birth) but, now, that trust has been taken to even higher levels and is being transformed into faith and belief in who I am and why I am here.

So, here I go, ready to do another Master Cleanse - my focus this time around is to launch or take off in some positive way - just me and all of these dreams that I have carried for so long.

Have a lovely day,

April
